Branching fractions and CP asymmetry in $B^+ \to \phi \phi K^+$ and $B^0 \to \phi \phi K^0 $ decays
ORAL
Abstract
Measurements of the decays $B^+ \to \phi \phi K^+$ and $B^0 \to \phi \phi K^0$ are reported using 423 fb$^{-1}$ of data, corresponding to 464 million $B\kern 0.18em\overline{\kern -0.18em B}$ pairs, collected with the {\sl B{\scriptsize A}B{\scriptsize AR}} detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ factory at SLAC. We report the branching fractions of the decays $B^+ \to \phi \phi K^+$ and $B^0 \to \phi \phi K^0$, and CP asymmetry in the charged $B$ mode for $\phi \phi$ invariant mass below 2.85 GeV/$c^2$. We also search for a direct CP asymmetry within the $\eta_c$ mass region.
